Burnt

by Anthony Horowitz
Burnt, is the book I would like to recommend to the readers of this web page. Burnt, is part of a series of six books, all frightening! They are short and easy but very interesting. Normally these books contain about three short horror stories written by Anthony Horowitz.
I’ve read about three of this series, but Burnt and Night Bus are my favourite. Although the first two stories of Burnt weren’t great, the last one (The Shortest Horror Story Ever Written) was special because it had something that not all books have. As this story was the one I liked most, I’m going to talk about it:
This story, as the title says, is very short (Four pages). Supposedly someone who had been in prision added these pages to the book one night while the building of the publishing company, that was going to publish this book, was empty. This story is written from the point of view of the man who escaped from prison. I don’t want to tell you anything more about this story because it may spoil the plot for you, I would however warn you that what the man wrote is quite threatening!!

Stormbreaker

by Anthony Horowitz


Have you read this book?. If you haven’t read it, I recommend you to do so.
The book is exciting, easy to read and hard to put down. It is one of the books that if you start to read you can’t leave it. The vocabulary is very easy.
If you like action books and spies you need to put it on your list. Alex Rider, the main character in the book, looks like James Bond but he is younger. For his missions he has lots of gadgets: A Game boy equipped with spy gear, zit cream that eats through metal…., etc.
This is the trailer of the movie



Alex is a very good boy and he is very good doing martial arts.

READ THE BOOK. YOU WILL LOVE IT !!
